After their defeat to Sevilla pre-international break, things did not look good for Real Betis in the centre-back department. Diego Llorente was reported to the Spanish Football Federation over comments he made about the refereeing during El Gran Derbi, while fellow starter Natan suffered a knee injury during the feisty affair.
